I can't figure out what my continued problem is. Just checked gravity of force fermentation sample. OG 1.060 and FG 1.028. Despite yeast starter and carbon filter I have still missed my anticipated FG 1.016. When using my Refractometer ATC do I need to make corrections to the final measurement based on weather I'm reading wort, fermentation, and/or finished beer?
The following article helps..kind of...Does BS have refractometer corrections for measuring diff types of samples?

Think I'm starting to answer my own question. " Once alcohol is present in the liquid a mathmatical correction must be applied"

Can't find refractometer video that this video refers to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JjVrqoLPziQ&feature=youtube_gdata_player
